Andrew Novak has absolutely torn up the VidantaWorld Mexico Open, building a commanding lead heading into the final round this Sunday, November 1. This FedEx Cup Fall series event, now in its fifth year, looks like it’s already got one hand on the trophy, but the stakes are still sky-high for everyone else.

The Money, The Points, and The Mountain to Climb

That massive $1.08 million first-place prize is out there, and right now, it feels like it’s got Novak’s name on it. But for the rest of the field, this isn’t just about the cash. It’s about those invaluable FedEx Cup points, the kind that push players into the top 100 and secure their PGA Tour card for 2027. Every stroke matters for those guys trying to keep their tour dreams alive. Then there’s Brian Campbell, who’s got a mountain to climb. He’s a full 10 shots back, but if there’s going to be a first-time repeat winner at this event, he’s the guy who’ll have to pull off the mother of all comebacks. Never say never in golf, right?

Who’s Chasing and Where To Catch The Action

The final round tee times are all set, with players hitting the course bright and early. Andrew Novak, Matthieu Pavon, and Doug Ghim are scheduled to tee off at 1:51 p.m. ET from Hole 1. If you’re looking to catch all the drama as it unfolds, Golf Channel has exclusive TV coverage of the final round, live from 4-7 p.m. ET. Prefer to listen in?

Sunday, November 1, is going to be appointment viewing. Can Novak maintain his seemingly unstoppable pace and claim that huge prize and those precious points? Or will someone, perhaps even Brian Campbell, pull off an absolute stunner from way back? It’s all happening in Puerto Vallarta, and you won’t want to miss how this FedEx Cup Fall event wraps up!
